The Calm Before the Storm

Right now, I'm sitting in a lush garden in 80 degree weather checking my email. This is about as calm as things have been since we got back to NLCH, and it's not going to last for long. Starting later today, Kara and I will get our first taste of working with teams that come down from the states. We have a group of 20 coming from Highland Baptist Church in Waco, TX to help with Intermissions (a conference for missionaries in Guatemala) in Antigua this weekend.

Now that I've been driving in Guatemala for a week, I get the chance to drive a 15 passenger van full of people around the city. The group will have a pizza party here with the kids tonight, and then we head to Antigua tomorrow to enjoy the conference for the weekend. When we return on Sunday, the group from Highland will have a program for our kids.

Then we'll have a few days to get ready for our spring break teams- one from LakeRidge UMC in Lubbock, TX March 11-18, and the next one from Asbury College (led by my buddy Paul) March 17-24.

By the way- incase any of you are interested in keeping up in more detail with what teams do while they are here, go to www.nlchteams.blogspot.com and www.nlch.net.
